We update the fundraising platform biweekly. Keep reading for a selection of the new features, enhancements, and bug fixes in the latest update.
Features and Enhancements ✨
GiftAssist
To help cover more of your processing fees, GiftAssist’s Opt-in Donors by Default setting is now automatically enabled when you create, clone, or enable GiftAssist on a standard or peer-to-peer form. When the setting is disabled in standard form settings, a prompt appears to recommend you enable the setting so more donors choose to cover fees.
Bloomerang Fundraising App (iOS and Android)
When you check in a participant for your peer-to-peer event, the participant’s target is now named Goal instead of Amount.
Fixes 🛠️
Donor Portal
The donor Giving Dashboard now shows the public titles for forms instead of the internal form names, so each donor’s giving history is clearer.
Forms and Form Settings
New standard donation forms created with the New Form button now correctly include Text-to-Donate when your organization has Text Fundraising, so the feature is ready to use without extra setup.
On donation forms with a suggestion to make a donation recurring, the Add New Recurring Suggestion button now appears as expected, so you can add a second recurring donation suggestion.
When you refund an auction item and choose to return it to the bidder's cart, the item now correctly returns so you can reassign it to the next highest bidder.
Peer-to-peer administrator notifications now accurately reflect each donor's choice to hide their name or donation amount.
Payments, Fees, and Billing
The statements for in-progress fees now include returns from the previous month that are queued for your next bill, so the projected total matches what you'll actually be charged.
Reporting and Data
Fundraisers associated with recurring transactions now export to Bloomerang CRM, so your fundraiser reporting is complete and accurate for all gift types.
For organizations using the Bloomerang CRM integration, voided Bloomerang Fundraising transactions no longer re-export to Bloomerang CRM.
The Packages Sold and Contributions by Event data insights are again available for organizations using standard events to add to their organization Dashboard.
The Donor Summary History page now loads reliably for organizations with large history records, so you can review past donor summaries without errors.
In Peer-to-peer email statistics, the Bounced count now shows the correct number of bounced emails instead of repeating the Dropped count, giving you accurate insight into your email performance.
